YES! @ChhayaKolavalli just made a strong case for better scholarly & citational practices (e.g. #CiteBlackWomen @CiteBlackWomen) and stronger connections across disciplines so we stop reinventing the wheel.
This is such important (and undervalued) work

I'm populating a list for those of us tweeting at & about #NASEMSciComm - https://x.com/i/lists/1532094558544306180 Please help me add other speakers, organizers & participants by dropping handles here
@drkeegansawyer @moefeliu @frazierarchive @sarakyeo @TheCosmicRey Have any of you made a list of the speakers here at #nasemscicomm?
So glad to hear Darryl Williams of @TheFranklin shout out the importance of @InclusiveSci #inclusivescicomm as we enter final session of Day 1 #NASEMSciComm. It's been a transformative community & conference for me.
Good. Tony Mills of @AEI is refining the point here that as important as epistemic humility is, decision-making (political and otherwise) is ultimately about making judgment calls. We all must often act in the absence of certainty. #NASEMSciComm
At #NASEMscicomm @laurahelmuth asks about fostering intellectual humility in audiences as well as among scientists.
I suspect there is alignment with literature on how to encourage a "deliberative stance" in discourse & democracy research. Anyone have expertise/refs for that?
I'm always frustrated by framing persuasion as inherently distasteful as opposed to the appropriate & worthy aim of "educating people so they make up their own minds."
I believe confronting & interrogating our persuasive intent is essential to doing it ethically. #NASEMscicomm
I'll be occasionally tweeting from today's sessions of #NASEMscicomm. If you're keen on the science of #scicomm, you can register https://www.accelevents.com/e/scicommcolloquium & watch these 3 days of programming. (Tomorrow is entirely online.)
